Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver, Antonio Brown, received another prestigious NFL award for his incredible offensive performance in the 2018-2018 season.

When it comes to the best receivers in the NFL, everyone knows the Pittsburgh Steelers have one of the league’s very best. Since entering the league, Antonio Brown has been giving defensive coordinators nightmares and winning many people fantasy football championships. Needless to say, his impact on Pittsburgh’s offense has been incredible, making their passing attack extremely dangerous.

After finishing the 2017-2018 season with over 100 receptions for 1,500 receiving yards and 9 touchdowns, Brown once again established himself as the league’s best offensive weapon. When you have seasons like that, it only makes sense you clear your shelves for the hardware that will surely be on it’s way.

All kidding aside, take a look below at the award Brown was able to win for the second time in his career, courtesy of Teresa Varley of the Steelers’ official website:

"Antonio Brown was honored at the NFL 101 Awards in Kansas City. Brown was named their 2017 AFC Offensive Player of the Year.This is the second time that Brown was honored by the organization. Brown, and teammate Le’Veon Bell, were named co-AFC Offensive Players of the Year in 2014, the first time there were co-winners."

Once again, we’re all reminded of how great Brown truly is. There were some incredible offensive performances this season from a variety of different players, but these 101 media-members believed Brown topped them all.

However, the most-impressive part of Brown’s game has always been the consistency he’s played with. According to Pro Football Reference, in his eight years in the league, Brown has totaled 1,000 receiving yards six times, scored eight-plus touchdowns five times and caught 100-plus passes five times.

Next: Is drafting Lamar Jackson a serious possibility for Steelers?

If you haven’t realized it already, this is Antonio Brown’s league and everyone else is just living in it.
